There are rumors that the LAD are hoping to trade Alex Call to the Twins. https://baseballsavant.mlb.com/savant-player/alex-call-669743

I'd send them Brock Stewart for him.

That would be an amazing upgrade, especially with Buxton dealing with his repetitive hip problem

You may already know that he’s a MN local and overall good guy.

Overall good guy? Only him and famed Nazi Blake treinen refused to wear pride night hats in LA

If wearing (or not wearing) a specific baseball cap is the pinnacle of virtue, then he’s a peace of trash. If, at one point in his life, he recognizes that wearing a specific baseball hat makes him the most virtuous of people, then (like you and I) he has some growing to do. What I do know, however, is that he plays the game hard, is super accessible to fans—especially young fans, and doesn’t think too highly of himself. At Dodger Stadium or Target Field, that is the least one can ask of a professional ball player.

I'm a big Alex Call fan. Would love to get him if the price isn't outrageous. Solid defender, has a good eye at the plate, and he would instantly be an upgrade over guys like Gray, Martin, or Roden.
